In the evening, Yuna hosts a celebratory banquet for Rand and Klaus at the palace. She is seated on a throne, dressed in a low-cut dress of pale purple lace, with Rand and Klaus seated on either side of her.
"Let's congratulate the two Troll Warriors on obtaining the Grey Spider's core," Yuna raised her glass to Rand and Klaus. "Your courage is unmatched."
When Klaus put down his glass, he asked Yuna a question.
"Why didn't your queen come to dinner?"
"The queen is still cultivating," Yuna replied. "She's going through the final phase of her transformation."
"Now that we've got the Grey Spider's core, should we move on to the next step?" Klaus asked, adding, "I mean the details about the marriage between the Succubus and the Trolls."
"If I'm not mistaken, the suitor should be another troll warrior," Yuna said, her mouth curling into an inscrutable smile. "And you seem to be in a more anxious hurry than he is."
Klaus looked at Rand and tried to signal Rand to say something. Rand was holding a Succubus maid by the waist, and the shirtless Succubus maid was holding a flask with both hands, pouring the bright red wine slowly down Rand's throat.
Rand received a kiss from the Succubus maid as he drank from the flask in one gulp.
"Rand," Klaus said.
"What?" Rand looked at Klaus, who had loosened his grip on the waist of the Succubus maid.
"It's time for us to talk about marriage," Klaus reminded his brother in a low voice.
"Now?" Rand said nonchalantly. "Since Elder Yuna has thrown such a grand celebration for us tonight, we should enjoy it."
"As for the details of the marriage, we can wait until tomorrow to discuss them." Rand's gaze shifted to Yuna's body. "I'm sure Elder Yuna will keep her promise, right?"
"Of course I will," Yuna replied, looking at Rand with a charming expression in her eyes. "It's an honor for our queen to marry a heroic troll like you."
After hearing Yuna's praise, Rand unabashedly wore a smug expression and, for the moment, he was completely absorbed in Yuna's words.
Then Yuna clapped her hands, and the next second, the music was playing. Ten Succubus entered from opposite sides of the ballroom, their upper bodies showing full, rounded breasts, and their lower bodies clad only in a pair of sexy panties.
They all had beautiful faces and perfect figures, and they wore bells on their feet and hands. They writhed in the light of the candles, and the sound of the bells and the music mingled into a pleasant dance tune.
Two of the Succubus drew Rand up from his seat, and Rand joined them gladly. When the other Succubus tried to get Klaus to join them, he refused, not being as unscrupulous as his brother.
Rand was surrounded in the centre by a group of Succubus, who danced and made provocative gestures towards him. Rand clutched one of the red-haired Succubus, and with one hand, he lifted her high above his head and flung her up.
Thrown into the air, the Succubus screamed and Rand caught her with his arm just in time for her to land. All the Succubus were so astonished by his strength that even Yuna could not refrain from applauding him.
Klaus thought to himself as he watched Rand's every move.
Why could you not see that there was no weariness in his face, and that his strength had evidently increased considerably from what it had been before?
It must be the efficacy of the eaux-de-vie.
Klaus's mind was filled again with mixed feelings, and he understood what they were.
It's remorse, it's jealousy.
If he had not saved Rand, then it is most likely that he was the one who would have married the Queen Succubus.
A thought crossed Klaus's mind. Why did he not use the panel to dissect Rand? That would give him a clear idea of the level of Rand's current strength.
Klaus, whose gaze was fixed on Rand, who was joking with the Succubus, opened the panel with his mind.
"Use the parsing function," Klaus spoke at a volume that only he could hear.
A red dot appeared on the panel, and the red dot was aimed at Rand's head. The next second, a prompt message appeared on the panel.
[Note: The parsing function is only used to analyze the target enemy. Once the parsing is completed, the host will kill the parsed target within the specified time.]
[Do you use the parsing function? ]
Klaus hesitated, was he going to kill Rand?
"What are you doing?" Yuna's voice interrupted Klaus's train of thought.
"Nothing." Klaus closed the panel immediately and, assuming a casual air, took his glass and drank.
"Your brother's strength is strong." Yuna was standing behind Klaus, and she had her head down and her mouth close to his ear.
"But I know you're no less capable than him."
"Are you drunk?" Klaus asked.
"Do you think I'm talking drunk?" Yuna whispered, "I can feel the emotions inside you."
"Jealousy and remorse."
The next second, after Yuna said this, Klaus drew Yuna into his arms, and he was face to face with her.
One of his hands was clasped tightly around her lower back, and the other clasped her thin, white neck. He noticed that the two guards next to her were drinking in a corner, and his movements would have appeared as if they were merely flirting.
"As long as I push hard," Klaus whispered in Yuna's ear, "your neck will leave your body at any moment."
"I bet you won't," Yuna laughed, ignoring Klaus's warning.
"How dare you read my heart," Klaus glared at Yuna.
"Don't you know that all Succubus are demonic squires?" Yuna put her arms tenderly around Klaus' neck, and she looked him in the eye.
"We can feel all the evil emotions." Yuna blinked, "That's because you haven't learned how to hide your emotions yet."
Klaus was silent, and his disgusted look told Yuna that he would not allow her to do so.
"I want to make a deal with you," Yuna said.
"Deal?" Klaus raised an eyebrow, and he looked at Yuna with a searching glance. Her face was calm and unwavering, but there seemed to be some secret hidden in the depths of those seductive eyes.
"Follow me," Yuna said, as she stepped away from his body.
Klaus glanced at Rand, who was placing a Succubus on the table, parting her legs and rudely removing her remaining panties. The other Succubus knelt by their side, and they all looked with admiring eyes at their companion lying on the table.
Klaus knew that his brother would not find out, even if he was absent for a night. For there were still plenty of Succubus waiting in line to be taken by him, and he had plenty of energy to satisfy their sexual needs.
When Klaus saw Yuna waiting for him at the exit of the palace, he did not hesitate to approach her.
